Joint inventions by Tokyo Tech researchers and corporate researchers
As a result of joint research, a "joint invention" may be produced for which the inventors are both Tokyo Tech researchers and corporate researchers.
Other than joint research, "joint inventions" may be produced from ideas that come to mind during talks between researchers, and utilization of confidential information learned in information exchanges connected with MTA and NDA agreements.
